Smart Lipo Arms - how long so I can see any results?

Thank you for your question.

You are very early in your recovery. It takes time to heal and for the swelling to subside. Try to be patient. Final result can take 6 months. Continue to follow your surgeons instructions and contact him or her with any concerns. Best wishes.

Hello and thank-you for your question. Coolsculpting works on the basis that fat cells are more sensitive to cold than are surrounding tissues of the skin. During the Coolsculpting treatment the fat is cooled to cause cryolipolyis while carefully monitoring the temperature of the skin surface. The fat cells release their fat and shrink.  Unlike liposuction where the fat is removed, the released fat is metabolized and eliminated by your body.  The improvement can generally be seen at 3 weeks, but it typically takes 3 months to see the final result.  Most people require more than one treatment depending on degree of improvement needed and expectations. We utilize the new Cool Advantage applicators which are much more comfortable and reduce treatment time to 35 minutes.  We currently have 4 Coolsculpting machines and can offer "Dual Sculpting" which further reduces the treatment time.  I recommend keeping in touch withe the office of your treating physician and regular follow-up for optimal results.  Best wishes

It takes weeks to months to start to see the improvement in arms.  At this time you should be getting massage therapy, RF treatments like venus legacy or exilis, and wearing compression.  Best, Dr. Emer.
